The Arabah will blossom and bloom…

Finding Your Love Legs

What he did hurt and what they did hurt worse and I believed I couldn’t be loved. So I decided I wouldn’t be silly or sappy…if I couldn’t be loved then I decided I wouldn’t need love.

Silent, dark day.

For years I walked this path, burrowed in deep and forged ahead. I laughed at those who were vulnerable to love. I didn’t need it.

I was successful in my chosen path and I took that as proof that I’d made a good choice, an indicator that everything was going to be okay.

Then, like He did to Jonah, God sent a fierce storm into my life and “every man called on his god” and I found that the god I was serving wasn’t the God I thought I was serving and my need for Love-God was unveiled and my path wasn’t the one that led to Him.

I was exposed, tossed overboard.

Horrid, blessed exposure.

But Love cords drew me, knew me, and invited me. God is a God of infinite chances. And when Love beckons, you lift face up and feet follow and you find your legs.

I began learning new habits. Like an injured body relearning to walk, to eat, to live, I began re-learning how to live again… how to live when Love is yours.

~~Letting go in order to stand in Grace

~~Giving thanks to develop eyes for Love

~~Anchoring in Truth to find freedom

I can only share my story. I can only point to Truth who is Love. I can only say, “Don’t give up seeking Him who is Life and Love and does not withhold any good thing from those who love Him.”
